Tyler's Week 2 Progress Report

I'm going to be honest, I have been in Florida since last Thursday. I have not gotten too much more completed, but that will soon change. I am narrowing down my possible thesis between several questions I'd like to ask. These questions include: Did the laws for free blacks ever change, so they were not benefitting from being free? Did the Jim Crow laws ever prove costly for free blacks? (And what specific indicators differentiate between free and slave blacks?)

Goals for next week: have a definite thesis, knock out a good portion of the Rough Draft, compile my sources into a working bibliography.
